Bank of Japan Decision on the Interest Rate. Japan, 04:30 (GMT+2)

The decision of the Bank of Japan on the interest rate will be published at 04:30 (GMT+2). In general, if the Bank of Japan is showing a "hawkish" attitude towards inflation outlook and raising rates, it is positive (or "bullish") for the JPY. Accordingly, if the regulator's attitude towards the national economy is "dovish", and the rate is maintained at the current level or decreases, this negatively affects the currency. It is expected that the regulator will leave the rate at the level of –0.1%.

Fed Interest Rate Decision. United States, 20:00 (GMT+2)

At 20:00 (GMT+2), the US Federal Reserve's decision on the interest rate will be announced, followed by a press conference. The interest rate affects the rates of commercial banks and other financial institutions, as well as the exchange rate of the US dollar. If the Fed raises rates, it indicates its hawkish view of inflation and strengthens the USD. The rate cut is regarded as a sign of economic and price risks; therefore, it is accompanied by a weakening of the currency. If the rate remains unchanged, the markets' attention turns to the FOMC statement and its rhetoric on inflation.
